Usuli Institute Khutbah: "The Prophet's First Khutbah and the Cornerstone of Faith," 12 June 2020

Dr. Khaled Abou El Fadl delivers the Usuli Institute weekly #VirtualKhutbah and Jumu'a prayer. He gives a rich and nuanced description of the context surrounding the very first khutbah delivered by the Prophet Muhammad to the first Muslims as they prepare to migrate from Mecca to Medina. Further, he explains the four points of advice that the Prophet sets forth to his followers at the most tumultuous time in which the entire Muslim project was at risk of failure. The lessons for our current times are striking. www.usuli.org.
